Subject: Problem with window program under root
To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx <mailto:fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx>
I can't open any window program under root such as gedit, pirut,
software update...that's just programs I tried, but probably I can't
open any window program under root that need X...
when I try this write:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
Unable to import modules. Maybe you're not running under X?
please help
I couldn't find any answer on net...
You don't say if this is local or remote.
If remote, remember to use -Y, ie:
$ ssh -Y myserver
If it is local, use sudo for commands that need to be run as root. That
will preserve your Xwindows permissions. However, runing KDE based
applications via sudo, will create (recreate) ~/.ICEauthority as root.
This will cause your next login to fail. Be sure to remove (or change
permissions on) it before you log out.
Also, most of the system-config-* commands are now able to ask for the
root password, thus enabling you to run them from the command line
either locally or remote as yourself.
Good luck!
